74. people allow themselves to be objectified or they don't
the clothes don't matter much, it's what kind of strength as a person you have.
i've known women who dressed like librarians that allowed themselves to be treated like servants, and incredibly empowed women not afraid to show cleavage. there's a lot more to people thatn image, although you've decided otherwise. first there were too many of these women, now they're a rarity in your school, and now you'd like to tell us what temperature is acceptable. good god, i can't listen to this repressive judgemental bullshit anymore.
if you favor your own kind, good for you, stick with them and don't venture into the big city where others norms might clash with your own. it's a big world, lots of tank tops out there, omigod, you might see some dirty cleavage or something!
